Basketball Is The Best

Basketball is the best sport ever
Even when you are dumped in the weather
I find it quite exciting
That is why I am writing
Go ahead think I lie
But I am telling you the truth
And you know why
I find it really quite fun
Even when I play in the hot hot sun
I also have to wear my hat
And maybe even burn some fat
But I make note be very careful
Cause some bad players might be dareful
But whenever you feel bored out of your brain
Go ahead and have a game
Maybe think once, maybe think twice
Cause basketball will pay the price
